Why You Need to Change the Brake Fluid on Your Honda and How to Do It with the BG Brake Flush Machine – REAL Automotive & Performance
At REAL Automotive & Performance, we understand that your Honda's reliability and safety are paramount. One often-overlooked but crucial aspect of vehicle maintenance is changing the brake fluid. Brake fluid plays an essential role in the performance of your vehicle's braking system, and failing to replace it on time can lead to serious problems. Here’s why changing your brake fluid is important and how we can help you do it with the BG Brake Flush Machine.
Why You Need to Change the Brake Fluid in Your Honda
Maintain Braking Efficiency Brake fluid is responsible for transmitting force from the brake pedal to the brake components in your Honda. Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air, which can lower its boiling point and affect braking performance. By changing the brake fluid regularly, you ensure that your Honda's braking system remains responsive and effective, providing you with better stopping power.
Prevent Brake System Damage When moisture and contaminants build up in brake fluid, they can corrode key brake components like the master cylinder, brake lines, and calipers. Regular brake fluid flushes help prevent these problems, saving you from costly repairs and ensuring your Honda’s brake system stays in top condition for longer.
Ensure Safety on the Road A well-maintained brake system is essential for your safety. Old or contaminated brake fluid can lead to issues such as a soft or unresponsive brake pedal, which could significantly impair your ability to stop your vehicle. By changing your brake fluid at the recommended intervals, you ensure your Honda’s brakes are working optimally, reducing the risk of brake failure and enhancing your overall driving safety.
Follow Manufacturer’s Guidelines Honda recommends changing the brake fluid every 30,000 miles or every two years, depending on driving conditions. This regular maintenance helps prevent the buildup of contaminants and moisture, ensuring that your vehicle’s braking system performs as expected. Keeping up with this schedule is key to preserving your Honda’s braking performance and safety.
Steps to Change Brake Fluid Using the BG Brake Flush Machine
Changing the brake fluid on your Honda is a delicate procedure, and using the BG Brake Flush Machine guarantees a thorough and efficient fluid exchange. Here's how we do it at REAL Automotive & Performance:
Prepare Your Honda and Equipment Our certified technicians start by securely lifting your Honda to access the brake fluid reservoir and brake lines. The BG Brake Flush Machine is then set up and connected to your vehicle’s braking system. We ensure that only high-quality, Honda-approved brake fluid is used during the flush.
Locate the Brake Fluid Reservoir Once the hood of your Honda is open, we locate the brake fluid reservoir, typically a clear, easily visible container. Our technicians inspect the current fluid to assess whether it needs to be replaced due to contamination or moisture buildup.
Connect the BG Brake Flush Machine The BG Brake Flush Machine is then attached to your Honda’s brake system. This advanced machine is designed to remove all the old, contaminated brake fluid from the system and replace it with fresh, clean fluid, ensuring the entire braking system is flushed thoroughly.
Flush and Replace the Brake Fluid The BG Brake Flush Machine pumps out the old brake fluid while simultaneously replacing it with new, high-quality fluid. This process ensures that all moisture, air, and contaminants are removed from the brake lines, restoring your brake system’s performance to factory specifications.
Inspect and Test the Brakes After the brake fluid exchange is complete, our technicians conduct a thorough inspection of the brake system. We check for any leaks, ensure that the brake fluid is at the correct level, and test the brake pedal to confirm that everything is functioning smoothly and efficiently.
Dispose of Old Brake Fluid Responsibly Proper disposal of old brake fluid is critical for environmental safety. At REAL Automotive & Performance, we make sure all old brake fluid is disposed of according to local regulations, ensuring it doesn’t pose a risk to the environment.
